Matthew 6:7-15

7“And when you are praying, do not use thoughtless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard because of their 1many words. 8So do not be like them; for 2your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

9“3Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father, who is in heaven, 4Hallowed be Your name.10 5 6Your kingdom come. 7Your will be done, 8On earth as it is in heaven.11 9Give us this day 10our daily bread.12And 11forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.13And do not lead us into temptation, but 12deliver us from 13 14evil.15’ 14 16For if you forgive other people for their 17offenses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But 18if you do not forgive other people, then your Father will not forgive your 19offenses.
